Lord, You are my strength,

whenever I'm completely weak.

You are the spiritual delight

in Whom I only seek.



Lord, You are my morning light

that's shining above the mountain peaks.

You are my hungering desire -

For each day of every week.



Lord, You are my vigilant Father

over earthly trials through which I eke.

Please keep me mindful of Your Word,

so my attitude remains... humble and meek.

Peter’s Message for Us.  Acts 2.14-41

Peter, the impetuous disciple of Christ—the one who denied him three times—at Jesus’ most desperate hour, preached the sermon of a lifetime, and 3000 people came to know Jesus in one day.  Here is what he…

SEVEN AWESOME STATEMENTS

FROM THE

CROSS

Series 3 of 5

The Most Surprising Statement

“About the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice.  ‘Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?’—which means ‘My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?’” (Matthew…

Put your foot in sand; you'll see a footprint.

Make a fist you'll see the size of your heart (unless possibly you had heart transplant) put it up to your chest.

Take off your shoes and socks (unless certain medical issues say no) and put them up to a breeze (it feels great!)

Throw a rock in the water and see the water make waves.

Look up at the night sky and smell the cool air.

Smile as you see the least of us,…

Ok, I realized-Jesus thank you for letting me know-why I'm so intimidated by the cult.

1) There's atleast three people involved (excluding me).

2) One is a man (he's an elder), he's not short but not really really tall. I'm only like a tad bit over 100 pounds and 4 foot 10 and an 8th/ 4 foot 11 (the person who taught me nursing said this is as tall as I'll get). Men are intimidating. It's also intimidating that if it's found out I'm in "Christiendom" I may…

Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your many promises of blessings. I am thankful that You are my refuge and I can run to You when I am in trouble. I am also grateful that You keep me from the traps of the devil. Lord, I do love You, and I ask that You cleanse my heart from any thing that is not like You. Strengthen me to walk worthy before You and my fellow men. Lord, restore the "fear of the Lord" to Your people today. Lord, forgive us when, in certain areas, we have become too casual…

Good Morning.  

Picture the 120 gathered together, and filled with the Spirit for the first time in history.  They begin to speak in unknown languages--unknown to them, but not to the Jewish pilgrims who had traveled to Jerusalem to observe Pentecost.  A crowd gathers and hears the good news…

Never Allow Circumstances to Rob You of Your Joy.( Bible Study by Gwen Shaw)

We are a generation that has been spoiled by our abundance. We get what we want and we want more than our wants. In fact, we never seem to stop wanting more. There is always one thing more that we want.

This leads to discontentment. And the discontented person finds it hard to praise the…

Ok, God is showing me where I seriously need His help to repent. He's revealed some secret (well one I knew about atleast somewhat) sins. Self pity, fear and jealousy-they're connected.

My self pity is the result of not having face-to-face fellowship. Pitying myself because it seems like every Christian can have human fellowship but me face to face. And, knowing even the little bit of fellowship on here...I won't be able to stay and communicate with other believers. Why?…

I'd like to know how to actually fellowship and fit in with other Christians despite autism.

And, I know Jesus loves anyone-autism or not-I'd just like to hear more about the the autistic's Christian walk with Christ and fellowship with other brothers/sisters in Christ despite autism.

Those who go through something, God uses that to help them symphanize with others or something like that. Maybe someone on here may know what I mean.

‘Round me on the airplane, some passengers are reading, and many are sleeping, as we wing our way over Greenland, bound for home.   While my body is exhausted, my head and heart are full of the sights, sounds, and experiences of the last days.  Hmmm, how to make sense of a holiday of short duration but of huge personal proportions…  Eight days ago, I flew with my family from Southern…

The Heavens Opened: Part 22

By Anna Rountree

(Continuation)

Departure

Then Elijah and I bowed and turned to leave. Before we reached the area where the dancing was taking place, I turned again to look at my Father. The mercy, splendor, and faithfulness of our God overwhelmed me. I choked a little as I said, “I love You, Daddy.”

“I love you, Anna,” my Father replied.

I smiled again and began to walk from the throne room with Elijah.…

Paul, having thus shown he was not inferior to any apostle, not to Peter himself, speaks of the great foundation doctrine of the gospel. For what did we believe in Christ? Was it not that we might be justified by the faith of Christ? If so, is it not foolish to go back to the law, and to expect to be justified by the merit of moral works, or sacrifices, or ceremonies? The occasion of this declaration doubtless arose from the ceremonial law;…

Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your promise of protection from the enemy. Thank You for the many times that I have been spared from the evil plans of the devil. I do appreciate Your angels watching over me and my loved ones. I am grateful that no weapon formed against me prospers. Lord, I submit to You, knowing that when I resist the enemy, he must flee from me. Thank You for answering me when I am in trouble and showing me the way out and how to overcome every problem that I face.…

This past three weeks have been very challenging for me.  I have been overwhelmed with my work and seemed to be choking in it. Instead of depending on God, my time with Him was practically reduced to nothing.  With Him aside, I was faced with the toughest challenges I have ever experienced.  In all this chaos, I kept saying to myself, 'God is in control', whereas  I had placed Him second in all the chaos around me.  Although I called for His help every now and then, I, at the same time…

Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your wisdom and guidance each day. It is so exciting to walk in Your ways. I do appreciate the unexpected blessings You bring my way each day. Thank You for the wonderful people You have brought in my life. Lord, give me the discernment to recognize those things that are not of you. Give me spiritual eyesight to see things that are of the enemy so that I might not be fooled by him. Keep me from anger and help me to know Your will so that I can follow…
